Jones To: lindamarionco@mindspring.com Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 4:22 PM Subject: Duggers Mills Question Linda My name is Gary Jones and this is the first time on your web site (its great). My father in law was raised near Dugger's Mill. He says their are two Duggers Mills. One was on Marshall Branch and the other was on a creek near Western Grove. I have the original Homestead Certificate but it only mentions Harrison. My father in law says the old homestead was in Searcy County. He also said the other Dugger's Mill was on the branch below their house. I am trying to research the mill as well as the Dugger family. Can you direct me? Thanks Gary
